Queerky Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Maybe we can all share pictures of our special friends and their cute little quirks and how they help us in whatever way. I think this is good stuff and yeah. Even if don't have a pet, maybe a picture of a pet you would like and why? I'll start :3 This is my male rat. I changed his name from Pink to Lucifer after my friend convinced me to name him after her. And I do think the name fits. Here is a photo of him sitting pretty on my shoulder He's pretty lazy. Likes to sit and clean himself on my shoulder. And then have a nap in my hood. He came alone because he doesn't get along with other boys. He even bit my boyfriend hard enough to draw blood! I got him to replace my dog (can't have one in the apartment I was moved into). He makes me get out of bed to fill up his water and feed him and take him out. And when I feel all mixed up and weird all I do is take him and put him on my shoulder and he distracts me by being all cute and such. Your turn now, guys :3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamnotafish Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Stuart Verdell (Stuart was a name I liked while reading Anne Rice and Verdell from the dog in As Good As It Gets) I got him when I was around 15 or 16 making him almost 11 or 12 now. He doesn't like to discuss his age though, so I wouldn't bring it up. He is scared of everything and I think his anxiety is on the same level as mine. Plus, it can't be easy being small. As he's aged his eyesight is going as well as his hearing, but he's still my baby. I call him my lil old man. He helped me through my depression as a teenager and although he's grown more attached to my dad (my dad being the Alpha dog in Stuart's eyes), he will still come to me more so than anybody, especially if other people are trying to get his attention. I love him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo 'n dye Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I am not sure there is enough bandwidth to post pictures of all of them...but a few are: Pearl, the blond and Jack, the redhead. Pearl was rescued as an 'old bitch' from a breeder. Jack came out of a horrific hoarding situation. Shortie, I inherited her from my dear sister---her other name is Sweet Pea... Lily, keeping the coyotes and road runners at bay: And last in this photo roundup, but certainly not in my heart, is Polly Pop-up, rescued from an abusive, cruel, and sad environment.

Wooster Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I love cow cats. Indigo, I forgot how much personality your herd has. This is my golden retriever service and therapy dog, Nugget. She is 7, will turn 8 in March. She's goofy and has opinions, and she's so adorable sometimes I just have to kiss her. This is our cat, Edie. She showed up at the women's shelter I used to work at. We refer to her as "the cat of unknown origins" since we don't know where she came from or how old she is. One of the shelter workers adopted her. That worker moved to Hawaii, and Edie needed a permanent home. Mr W and I have been her staff since 2005. I suspect Edie was framed in this otherwise incriminating photo of the manatee losing its stuffing: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Music Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 We have two dogs. Oldest is Joey, we're not sure how old he really is but we think he's about 6 or so. He was a rescue dog from a mean household. He's come a long way since we got him, he used to be terrified of absolutely everything. And youngest is Haydn, who's less than a year old still and is just a puppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olga Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 This guy is in my avatar, but I am happy to put up another one: His name is Finley, and he was rescued from an owner who was starving him. He came to us over 8 years ago and is now almost 11. Then there is my pretty girl: She has the very unoriginal name "Miss Kitty" and is a sweet lap-cat who is also an enthusiastic mouser. I have 50-55 chickens but I won't put all of them up. Check my blog now and then and there will be chix pix.

Squish Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Yay for pet pics! This is my girl Ria. When we got her as a tiny puppy I was the one who looked after her the most in the first week. So I kind of became her favourite. (She's still a puppy really, she's only 8 months old.) I'm away at uni now and I miss her lots. She is half cavalier king charles spaniel and half bichon frise. I suspect that she is not the brightest pup but she is the best cuddler.

Mim Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) This is my six year old girl, Miracle Maxine, known as Max or Smacky for short. We call her Smacky because she tends to be, ah, excitable. I rescued her out from under a dumpster when she was about four weeks old. She is the darling of my heart. She saved my life, no lie. And this is my two year old marmalade boy, Luigi (we call him Wee Weegie, because, though he's grown into a huge living scarf, he is the youngest), with my sister's big guy, Oxnard (also known as Mr. Hollywood, for his megawatt smile). These two gents are both shelter rescues, clearly both standoffish and not at all cuddly. edited for content Edited February 13, 2014 by Mim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiaB Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Mim, your cats are truly gorgeous! I understand when you say Smacky saved your life. My Rosie (who was rescued from a gutter when just a few weeks old) came into my life when I was stuck in a wheelchair with a broken hip and had just started a severely upsetting and distressing divorce. She would lie next to me in bed and let me hold her paw (literally) while I alternately cried and lay in a deeply depressed stupor. Having her to care for helped me crawl out of the pit. And she still permits me to hold her paw when I feel the need - she's the only cat I've known who does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe it when people say cats are aloof and don't feel love or loyalty. Baloney. Stories like yours are proof that's false, I think. It's sweet that she "holds hands" with you. Smacky likes to sit on my shoulder, or hog the pillow, and wash my hair, haha. It's hard to give in to even horrible depression when the cat is under the bed banging around with her toys, yelling up at me to come play with her. Even a lump can get out the laser pointer! Oh Mel, Newton is stunning. What a face! Also, pet rats FTW. My brother and his wife had one named Mrs. Frisby (not terribly original, admittedly, but she was a rescue and came named), who was affectionate, impeccably behaved and fun to play with. She died of old age a couple years ago, sadly. They're underrated companions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Aww, everyone has such beautiful and adorable pets! This is my super villain guinea pig Skrinkle. He likes carrots, and if he doesn't get them, he kills. I kid. I like to make stories of what goes on in his mind, so we decided to make him an evil villlain, trapped in his cage, doing life. I take him out and snuggle him, he likes to suck on my finger. I did a photoshoot with him one day. He's a Peruvian guinea pig, in Peru they are considered a "delicacy". Someone asked if I was going to eat him! I would never eat my pig, and he's to fluffy. He's such a good pet. He makes little WHEEK WHEEK noises, but not very often. If you whistle, he coos, and runs around, and flips his hut over. My landlord saw him and goes "What is that?! It's so furry!" I said "Oh, that's Skrinkle, my guinea pig" and he came in and saw him. My one roommate, whose moved out, had never seen a guinea pig before. She would ask how my bunny was doing. She was a bit confused when she saw him. "He doesn't look like a bunny!" and her fiancée said "Oh, that's because he's a guinea pig!" and she was like "What are those?" "That!" It was soo funny and cute.

San Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks everyone. Skrinkle was watching and if he didn't get good comments, he was going to take over the world and start with me, so I'm glad everyone likes him. He's chaotic evil. Never know what he's gonna do next.. I can totally video him one day and someone get him riled up and running around making noise.. hehe. Not sure how... I don't want to be mean. That would be cute though. Sometimes when I open the fridge in my room and he doesn't get a carrot he'll run around and WHEEK. I'm currently out of carrots. I must go apologize to the guinea pig, my ruler. See why he's in a cage?! He's such an awesome puff ball. He can detect evil. He cuddles with me, and pretty much everyone. My old roommate, going back a year and a half, wanted to hold him, and I let her, and he bit her, hard. She fucked me over in the end. He has good taste of character. If they're bad people, he bites 'em. He's only bit her... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo 'n dye Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Indigo, did you take that picture of the last picture you posted? That is really neat! If so, how did you get the white background? I did! If i post a photo taken by someone else or from google I always make note of the source. I used a long lens in a close up focus and the background blurred out to white: I should note that Pip was stationary and the background was static. It does not always work for me, I am a novice with a digital camera, but when it does I like it. This is Big Sis herding goats, I did not use the long lens for this one as there was too much activity, thus the brush in the background is apparent...

iamnotafish Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This is Sampson (the Saint Bernard) and Stuart (my Yorkie). I know this is happy thread, but unfortunately Sampson is no longer with us. He was truly the sweetest, biggest, dumb (and I mean this truly affectionately) dog ever. If you were laying on the couch, he would come sit next to you and lay his head on your lap. He loved, loved, loved sitting in the swimming pool. We called him our water buffalo during the summer. And in the winter he would just lay in the snow and eat chunks of it. He is definitely missed. Stuart is still doing well and even fell asleep in my arms last night for the first time ever. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hagar Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This is Pete. He is technically now my ex's dog, but really he's mine considering I picked him out, paid for his expenses, and took care of him for two years. But I can't have a dog like that in my apartment, so now he lives with my ex. I miss Pete more than him, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamnotafish Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Sampson was a beautiful dog. Here's a much better photo of him and Stuart that my dad took with his super duper nice camera (I just depend on my shitty cell phone). (Dad's permission granted for posting this!) Here are two more as well of just Sampson: The tongue shot before it was famous by Miley: Ever vigilant even during nap time: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KitKat23 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This was my precious baby Hunter, who I lost almost a year ago now. Still miss him so much... But now I have Shae, who I love just as much, even if she's a pretty constant pain in the ass, destroying one thing or another... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiaB Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Sampson is stunning - he looks like the kind of dog who you could just hug on a bad day. Hunter is gorgeous too - what beautiful eyes! Thank you iamnotafish & KitKat for posting those pics... what a privilege it was for you to be able to share your lives and hearts with such beautiful spirits!
